Hospital Bags

 

baby

SWADDLE BLANKETS :  I have always swaddled my babies the first chance I get! I love these blankets because they are huge, lightweight and my babies stay swaddled in them.

BINKI’S : the Nuk brand have always been the kind of binki’s / pacifiers that stay best in my babies mouths.

WHITE OUTFIT : of course this time we are to stay very neutral with everything since we didn’t find out the sex of the baby…so I thought this white little outfit would be perfect for either he or she.

ONESIES : they say that babies need just one extra layer. Carter’s brand our my absolutely favorite…and trust me I have tried every kind of onesies. These are super skinny and long which most babies are.

BAG : I love this bright color and the space + pocket organization inside are amazing!

MOCCS: ummm self explanatory! How could I not get these?

HEADBAND : just incase it’s a girl

HATS : I do put hats on my baby girls as well, but I do love them on the baby boys best!

SOCKS : must have…so those little piggies don’t get cold.

 

hospital

 

FLIP FLOPS : I don’t always love slippers. So I have always packed a pair of flip flops + I love to have something super simple and comfortable for coming home from the hospital in.

NIGHTGOWN : must have + they are easy to nurse in and I love this color!

CHAP-STICK : I love me a good smelling chap stick + this one is the best.

SPANX : (or a cheaper brand here) I put these on as soon as I can walk! My hips have always gone back to the same size or smaller and I know it’s because I have always wore compression underwear of some sort…seriously life changing!

UPDATE!!! I totally swear by the Belly Bandit (cheaper one here)!! Honestly this thing got me back to my pre pregnancy size faster and totally made my hips go back down!!

BAG : I have owned my Birdling Bag for over a year and love it!! I actually have two and can pack me and my three kids in one bag for the weekend! So worth it!

DRESS : I have a dress similar to this one to wear the day we come home from the hospital. I (and I’m hoping some other women) look at least 4-5 months pregnant after baby, so I always want something really loose to wear home + if if feels like a nightgown I am game!

SOCKS : a must need in those cold hospital rooms.

ROBE : I like to always have one a the hospital. It is just easy to nurse in and you can cover up in a second for last minute guests. Plus who really wants to get dressed? Haha.

NURSING PADS : Okay…I found these amazing Lily Padz with my second child and I will NEVER go back to normal nursing pads!! These are amazing and will stick to your skin + you don’t have to wear a bra at night!! Which to me is the best thing ever.

 

So I am going into the hospital tomorrow morning for our induction!! I can not believe the day is almost here. I thought since my hospital bags are finally packed and I am ready to go I would share some of my favorite + must have items I have come to need through out the years with my 4 babies. I hope you love them as much as I do….and tell any of your baby having friends. Thanks so much for all your love and support through this crazy + wild journey. Wish us luck tomorrow!! Love you all!

Happy Monday friends!! I hope you all had a great + relaxing weekend with your family and friends. This week is baby week + we have been running around like crazy trying to get everything ready! Only 3 more days!!

So, if you have been around here awhile you know by now that one of my pregnancy/maternity style staples are dresses. They are just the most comfortable and easy thing to throw on. This dress is by far one of the best maternity dresses ever! The fabric + stretch is amazing. The length, thickness, cut, sleeve length etc it’s all right on! (ps. I am not being paid to say or write this…these are all my own opinions!) And I could go on and on about this style of this dress. Can we talk about these new chunky heels I got awhile ago?! I usually don’t love the chunky heel but after seeing these on my sister I had to snag a pair + I am all about comfort and being able to keep up with my little people and I totally can in these shoes. Hope you enjoy these fun finds!

So how is it the weekend already?! These last few weeks have just flown by for me and my family!! So if you follow my on Instagram you’ll already know I caved and bought my favorite non-maternity body-con dress in purple! I couldn’t resist…Haha. This dress is seriously so comfortable + I love the bright color for summer. And since I can wear it after baby…I didn’t feel so bad PLUS its only $48 and you can not beat that!! Also, these coral wedges have been a staple for me and will continue through out the entire summer. They are the perfect height and don’t hurt my feet by the end of the day!!

AND…did I tell you that baby is for sure coming next THURSDAY, July 2nd?!! I can’t believe it’s almost here! Honestly, it still doesn’t seem real…like we are going to be blessed with another baby soon. I will be having a scheduled induction because baby is measuring 2 weeks bigger + with some of the other problems we have had this pregnancy my doctor just feels like this is the best thing for us. Well, I hope you all have a great Friday + a fabulous weekend!!

So Joe finally had a full day off…in lets say weeks + we knew exactly what we wanted to do…have a BEACH DAY!! It had been so long since we had gone with just our little family to the beach + it was just what we needed before baby comes in 8 days! We headed down to Newport Beach this time, as we like to switch it up between all the fun beaches down here. The weather was perfect, the beach was not to crowded and the kids were pretty good…with only one or two melt downs. Haha. The older kids love to boogie board, and Hayden still hates to touch the water. Right before we left I kinda drug her in (nicely of course) and within five minutes we couldn’t get her out of the water. I swear that’s how it always goes. I hope you guys have a fabulous Wednesday and thank you so much for stopping by our little space here!!

Happy Friday Friends!! So I am finally getting around to posting this amazing dress that is NON-maternity!! It says maternity on Nordstrom’s website but when I actually got the dress from the designer its just a one-size fits all dress and NOT maternity. Anyways, I just absolutely love how versatile it is. I love a dress/outfit that you can change a few accessories and it can be a whole new outfit. I was able to dress up this dress just by adding some nude heels and some extra jewelry + my favorite Micheal Kors Purse for a night out with the husband. Then all I had to do was lose a little jewelry, add some flat sandals and of course my favorite jean jacket + a hat and I was able to wear this dress the next day with my girlfriends + little people for lunch! Easy as that. Find a few staple plain pieces and dress them up or down with accessories.

Also there are some FABULOUS SALES going on right now that I know you don’t want to miss!

Happy Friday friends!! So did I blow you all away by finally wearing some jeans and not just a dress?! Haha! Yes, I was finally able to find some comfortable + stylish maternity jeans, and I am beyond thrilled with them!! I know I’ll also be wearing these jeans a lot after baby as I won’t be able to fit back into my normal jeans for awhile. Also…HUGE NEWS (well kinda) my favorite Michael Kors purse is back in stock!! I have searched and searched for you guys and I was finally able to find it. So if you have been eyeing it don’t wait! This purse sold out on my three times before I was finally able to snag it. Also, I was able to snag  the pink wallet which I know you’ll love as well! Thank you all so much for your support here in this space!! It truly means so much to me!! I hope you all have a great weekend!! Enjoy!!

Anyways, this peach striped dress is from Target + (they are having FREE SHIPPING all week) It doesn’t get better then that!!! I know we all have a love for Target + now I love their maternity section and especially Liz Lange items. The pricing is right on and will not break the bank + the quality is great, as all of my dresses and other clothes have washed up fabulously!! Trust me, you definitely need to snag a few of these dresses! Plus…I have been on the look out for the perfect straw hat and this one is it!!

Happy Friday everyone!! I can’t believe it’s already the weekend again! Well, we all know I am all about comfort during this pregnancy + all I have mainly worn is dresses. Haha. Can you blame me? They feel more like pajama’s. If you are looking for a great dress to get you through your entire pregnancy this peachy dress is one of them. I love that it is so versatile and I can dress it up or down depending on the occasion. I’ll be wearing this exact dress in black on Saturday as I’ll be speaking at Elevate (a blogging conference)…which I am so excited for! We (me and the little people) are headed down to Newport Beach today for a little getaway + the conference. I’m hoping to get in a little shopping + beach time in with the littles. Anyway, you can follow along on Instagram if you want. I hope you all have a fabulous weekend with your family and friends + thank you so much for stopping  by!!

We are headed down to Newport Beach for a short weekend getaway this Friday + I can hardly wait!! My little people don’t get out of school until mid-June so we need this little break before summer hits and baby comes!! I thought since I am packing (plus nesting like a mad women) I might as well share some of my weekend getaway essentials with you all!!

I have always loved a good flowy top + jeans (that stretch)…to let you eat whatever you want on vacation! Ha and because with three kids and by the end of the day I don’t want my outfit to look all stretched out.

Flip flops…we all know you’ve got to have a good pair that won’t rub in-between your toes or hurt when you walking alot. I love these teal ones + a having a fabulous cover up/dress that you can dress up for lunch or dinner is a must have as well. The back is amazing on this orange midi dress!

This floral swimsuit is even cuter in person!! (I know impossible right?) One of my good friends has it and the fit was beyond darling on her! So of course I had to snag one as well…and this ruched coral swimsuit I love, because ruching always helps cover the stomach. I already have 4 ruched swimsuits…because, I feel they are the most flattering on almost any body type!

As I have gotten older and seen the damage the sun does to your skin…I now won’t walk out the door without putting sunscreen on my face. I always use a stick like this because I  can get it exactly where I want + it never gets in my little people eyes. Also, if you follow me on Instagram you know my love for any kind of hat + sunglasses. (crazy hat lady) haha! Enjoy!!
